4 speed type 9 gearbox, pinto bell houseing and good clutch, no gear lever

offers

untested but came with a good engine so believed to be good, im replacing it with a 5 speed

as an aside what vehicle did this come out of? we run one in our racer and have found it a good strong box but never did find out what vehicle it came out of. how much are you asking might have it as a spare

4spd - surely thats a type E rather than a type 9 then :?

i thought this but the type e has the gear lever held in with the round clippy type thingy where as the type 9, including our 4 speed has the 3 bolt arrangement

not sure, i believe it to be a cortina 2000e

it's a type 3 then, not a type 9

type 3 would be my guess too

as found in Mk2/3/4 cortina's, Mk1 capri's and 1.6 sierra's acorrding to butrons site:

how would i find out exactly? the guy told me type 9 4 spd
now im curious

If it has a 3 bolt fixing on the stick like T9 but still 4 speed it will be from an early 2.0 Sierra

It was a hybrid of the Type 9 and 4 speed 2.0 Cortina / RS2000

It should have Type 9 synchro rings, 3rd 4th selector hub and input shaft but the rest of the box was mostly early parts.

this any help.

Type 3-4speed-7/8"x20 spline input shaft
Type E-4speed 1"x23 spline input shaft (rocket)
Type 9-5speed 1"x23 spline input shaft

Type E & T9 have the same gearstick fittings 3 bolt , i keep an E as as spare , T9 fitted in place of the E straight swap , apart from rubber mount .

the pictures are wrong on the burtons site in that case.

i based my type 3 suggestion on the gerastick mounting flange being the same.

Hi yep the burton site as good as it is is not that accurate.

As BearingKits says it is a hybrid type 9 Or a codge of the bits that where lying around ford at the time that would take the power of the 2.0l sierra.

It will have the same gear ratios as the 5 speed Ie: 3.65 1st 1.97 2nd 1.37 3rd and 1 4th OTTOMH.

Cheers Matt

ford have aways been good at bodging together the leftovers - so it makes it nearly impossible for anyone to have a completly accurate list of what they built
